Title: Apparatus and method for detecting change in capacitance value
Inventor: NISHIZONO KAZUNORI
IPC: G01R27/26
Filed: 2005-06-22
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and method for detecting change in a capacitance value capable of detecting variations of the capacitance value between a sensor capacitive element and a reference capacitive element with high precision by excluding the effect of a parasitic capacitive element of a capacitive sensor to regulate fluctuations in the capacitance value.  <P>SOLUTION: For the capacitive sensor having the sensor capacitive element and the reference capacitive element and keeping one terminal connected to fixed electric potential as a common terminal, a reading voltage is applied to the other terminal of each capacitive element to accumulate electric charges, and the electric charges are extracted from the other terminal. The extracted electric charges are converted into a voltage signal by a voltage conversion section, and its difference signal is amplified by the difference signal amplifier section. The reading voltage is regulated by a voltage regulating section according to need. In the reading voltage, a voltage level is commonly regulated to regulate a dynamic range, while the voltage level is individually regulated to regulate a capacitive offset.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Title: Advanced method for treating biologically-treated water and flocculation promoting agent for biologically-treated water
Inventor: SAIE TOSHIYUKI
IPC: C02F1/56
Filed: 2005-06-30
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an advanced method for treating biologically-treated water, with which an inorganic flocculant is added to biologically-treated water, the flocculant-added water is subjected to flocculation treatment, the flocculation-treated water is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain separated water, and the separated water is subjected to membrane separation and when the separated water is obtained, the separated water which is the water to be supplied to a membrane and has such high quality that the clogging of the membrane is prevented satisfactorily is obtained by making small the amount of the inorganic flocculant to be added.  <P>SOLUTION: The advanced method for treating biologically-treated water comprises the steps of: adding a water-soluble polymer having a phenolic hydroxyl group to the biologically-treated water and agitating them; adding the inorganic flocculant to the polymer-added agitated water and agitating them; subjecting the flocculant-added agitated water to flocculation treatment; subjecting the flocculation-treated water to solid-liquid separation to obtain the separated water; and subjecting the separated water to membrane separation. Since the water-soluble polymer having the phenolic hydroxyl group is added to biologically-treated water before the inorganic flocculant is added, the amount of the inorganic flocculant required to obtain the high-quality water to be supplied to the membrane can be drastically reduced and the quality of the flocculation-treated water can be remarkably improved.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Title: Regulator valve
Inventor: SHIMAI HIROYUKI
IPC: F02M69/00
Filed: 2005-07-01
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a piston 22 from being excessively lifted by increasing damper effect without impairing the responsiveness of a regulator valve 4.  <P>SOLUTION: In this regulator valve 4, a damper chamber 29 is formed at the rear of a piston 22, and a fuel goes in and out of the damper chamber 29 through a breathing hole 28 according to the behavior of the piston 22. The breathing hole 28 is connected to the cam chamber 19 of a high-pressure pump 3 through a fuel passage 27. Since a positive pressure fuel is fed from the cam chamber 19 of the high-pressure pump 3 to the damper chamber 29 through the fuel passage 27, even if an abnormally large negative pressure occurs on the intake side of a feed pump 2, the damper chamber 29 is not brought into a negative pressure state, and can always maintain a positive pressure. As a result, since the damper effect of the damper chamber 29 is increased, the excessive lift of the piston 22 can be suppressed and the discharge pressure of the feed pump 2 can be rapidly stabilized.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

IPC: H04N7/167
Filed: 2005-07-06
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To introduce VOD service having a limited reception function into a digital broadcasting station at low cost.  <P>SOLUTION: Sending-out systems for broadcasting are each given an HE identification number for discriminating the sending-out system for broadcasting, and HE identification numbers and work keys are received from the respective sending-out systems for broadcasting. When VOD contents are scrambled, scramble keys are fixed in content units or made common to all the sending-out systems for broadcasting, but common information to be sent out accompanying contents is generated by using the work keys individually for the respective sending-out systems for broadcasting. A plurality of pieces of common information generated by scrambled contents and HE identification numbers are stored on a VOD server, and at a request from a recipient, common information and scrambled contents corresponding to a broadcasting system that the identified recipient (receiver) belongs to are multiplexed and sent out. Consequently, different broadcasting companies which employ the same limited reception system can share the VOD system.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

Title: Magnetometer having electromechanical resonator
Inventor: GREYWALL DENNIS S
IPC: G01R33/02
Filed: 2005-07-13
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a magnetometer having an electromechanical resonator 102 coupled to a drive-and-detect (DD) circuit, in one embodiment.  <P>SOLUTION: The resonator is provided with a deformable beam which is a part of a closed current path. When a periodic drive signal is applied to a driving electrode disposed near the deformable beam, the DD circuit causes the oscillation of the beam. In the presence of a magnetic field, a magnetic flux passing through the closed current path is varied by the oscillation, and an oscillation current is thereby generated in the current path. When the current is consumed by the resistive loss in the closed current path, the oscillation of the deformable beam is dampened, wherein the attenuation coefficient depends on the intensity of the magnetic field. The DD circuit using a sensing electrode disposed near the deformable beam detects the amplitude of the oscillation. Based on the detected amplitude, the frequency of the driving signal is varied by the DD circuit, for finding the resonance frequency. Because the resonance frequency depends on the damping coefficient, the intensity of the magnetic field can be comparatively easily deduced from the resonant frequency.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

It is pressed thereagainst with force enough to resist against energizing force in the rotating direction, generated to rotate the temperature control handle B when setting a temperature, thus preventing the rotating turn of the temperature control handle B.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
